there's another take on this Martyn isn't there? Given that we haven't signed anyone yet, and we have just got back from China, there is indeed every chance that we will sign a player in the next 6 days, but realistically that proves fuck all as regards your vague claims.
You talk about a marque(e) signing, but then say it depends on what we get for our "deadwood" - at best we would get £5M for Ade (and most likely use some of that to pay him off) and maybe £1M for RSC (and use that to partially pay him off) - so this would make no meaningful available towards a marquee signing would it?
To me Martyn this is utter bollocks, but for sure there is nothing of any substance in what you allude to which could ever be checked anyway, excuse my cynicism/realism, this just smacks of sad attention seeking
No doubt if we sign someone over the course of the next 6 days you will be claiming it is the person you were alluding too, yawn
That money plus the wages they both earn and the rest of the deadwoods wages would be enough to then bring in a marque signing
oh yes of course, out there in the real world we have 2 or 3 marquee signings all lined up, but before we choose which one to actually take we will wait and see which deadwood we get rid of by say Friday - I can see it now, oi cristiano fuck off, we just got a million for crocky and 2 mill for ade, so we aint taking you; lionel over here son, we just got rid of roque santa cruz, we can afford you now
It's starting to make a lot of bleeding sense now (and here was me thinking the OP was talking vague and unsubstantiated bollocks)
